Lyrics
[Chorus] What it do, what it be Used to hang out on the Wii Now we all up in the club, never thought that we would see Girls calling my cellular Making cash rectangular Now we making all this music on the regular

[Verse 1] Riding around with the whole team Everyone knows that we got a dream All my doubters trying to chill and hang But I’m too busy rocking with the flex gang Pull up in a tesla DJ Khaled, we the best ya Hundreds in my bank now Post Malone gonna say wow Head to the back and fill my cup If I got to pull up, better tell me what’s up Straight to the point We going straight to the joint Me and the boys, we never disappoint

[Chorus] What it do, what it be Used to hang out on the Wii Now we all up in the club, never thought that we would see Girls calling my cellular Making cash rectangular Now we making all this music on the regular

[Verse 2] All of the stress that’s around me I just want to be what I want to be The world’s falling apart and I wanna live I don’t even care what I got to give Been through all the rough times Just avoiding all those dumb crimes Because now I want to fix myself Set the old me on that wooden shelf Ignoring an hater I’ll see you later Like Floyd I’m unstoppable Quitting is only optional The peep army is phenomenal Trust me I ain’t done I’m just having a little fun There’s still more truth left to find But I got a goal in mind Make this music for my fans Dropping all my other plans Grind to the top and get a hit 2020 is my year and I’mma make sure of it

[Chorus] What it do, what it be Used to hang out on the Wii Now we all up in the club, never thought that we would see Girls calling my cellular Making cash rectangular Now we making all this music on the regular
